Dear Dancers,

We're back from Swingin' New England!  I placed 5th in the All-Star Jack & Jill (4th Loser).  It was a great 3 days of dancing....so, how many dances will you dance this week?

We've got lots of stuff going on this week, 3 Dances: Hustle, WCSwing & Night Club 2-Step.  Newcomers are still welcome to all the classes.
We had over 30 people in each night last week - so let's keep our community growing - The more people, the more fun.

Have a great week,
Erik

Are You Ready For A Dance Event?

A dance event is one of the best way to improve your dancing and meet many new people who also love to dance.

Ready for your first dance event?


Dance Shoes / Sneakers
I have various types of dance shoes for different occasions.  Some of my shoes look like regular street shoes, while other look like ballroom shoes.  The pair that I wear most frequently are Dance Sneakers by Sansha.  These are perfect for jeans but look horrible if worn with shorts or skirts.
"Dyna-Sty" S37C, S937C

Pre-Register and Save Money:
Many events offer discounts if you pre-register/pay.

Fact:  Paying at the door can cost 20-50% more than the "early-bird" rates.

Fact:  Many smaller events may even cancel their functions if minimum pre-registration amounts can not be achieved.

Fact:  The stress level of event director, promoter, guest instructor, hosting facility is inversely proportional to the amount of pre-registered attendees.

Bottom line: Pre-Register and Save Money

 


Protect Yourself Against Fraud:

Many people are worried about paying online for dance stuff (events, pre-registration, tickets, shoes, etc).

Even safe sites, such as PayPal, scare people but it's 2008 and it's difficult to avoid paying for things online.  Plus many discounts are offered if you pre-register early via online payments.

Erik's Advice:

Get a new credit card with a low limit (like $100).  That way you can make online purchases with minimal worry about someone charging your life away. 

It's an easy way to protect yourself against credit card fraud and limits your exposure....best part, you can adjust the limit to your comfort level.
